I don't have any experience with soundproofing but this guy's videos have been good for me on a lot of other projects.

Living on a ranch I've imagined this problem. I'm not really much of a prepper, but I am in the middle of nowhere with a lot of resources so I know the whole family would show up if the shit hits the fan. On top of that quite a few friends have told me "If society collapses, I'm coming to...

Somebody gave me one of those dewalt stacking toolboxes so I bought a roller box to go with it only to find out that they have two different lines of them and mine aren't compatible. :P

When I was in Phoenix in college it was 117 one day and a girl that was in our senior project group decided to roller blade the 2 miles from her house to ours where we were working on the project. When she got there her face was literally purple. Never seen anything like it. I thought she...

I called ahead to the local BBQ joint for carry-out the other day. Got a piled high sliced brisket sandwich and fries that were so hot they melted the styrofoam clam shell for $14 and I was in and out in 5 minutes. A large combo at most of the drive-thrus in town would have cost just as much...

We've sold beef to people who wanted everything ground, including their good steaks. I couldn't deal with that so we traded them ground beef for rib eyes and tenderloins pound for pound. People are strange. Depends on what animal you bought. There's a pretty wide range of size that a beef...

Taco John's is about as bad. I went there the other day and ordered 5 soft tacos and a large drink. Turns out regular ass soft tacos are $3 each now so it was like $18.50. I can get lunch at a sit-down Mexican place for less than that and there will be more and better food.

I always use Frank's on wings just because in my mind that's what buffalo wings are supposed to taste like.

What's crazy is that they said he bought 3 pills and they found 2 of them still on him so 1 pill and he's tits up. I wonder if that dealer had any customers left by the end of the week.

Has to be a moth. A bat wouldn't be retarded enough to just keep flying into the window over and over.

I learned the hard way when I was remodeling not to base anything on the colors you see on the screen of a cheap laptop.

Is Bosa going to come in above Donald?

I haven't seen anything about this shake either. I happened to go inside a McDonald's a couple weeks ago and saw signs about "Grimace's Birthday" which caused me to quiz the kids that were with us to see if they actually knew about the McDonald's characters since I haven't seen them in a long...

I like mcnuggets as much as anyone but it wouldn't be my go-to if I was trying to impress a girl.

He's so much more of a hero to me now than when I thought he just ran fast.

"Ooooh, crushed you good eh?" means it's a Canadian redneck. What kind of Canadian redneck has a pool?

This is going to be harsh but you need to grow up a bit if you want to be a boss. You sound like a drama queen in those texts and your boss would be an idiot to put his business in the hands of a drama queen. You saying you don't get along with people but you get the spray on the bugs sounds...

My girlfriend is always trying to have serious conversations over text both with me and others and it's a fucking disaster but I can't convince her to stop doing it.

I'm not sure what you're getting from having the door there. If you just want a plywood desk it seems a lot easier to just make the sheet of plywood your desktop and don't bother with the door. You'd have to get ¾" ply but that seems a lot easier than messing around with an old door.

As someone with both a standing and chest freezer, the standing freezer is easier to see stuff in, but unless you're going to stack it 6 high, you can't get as much stuff in there and if you do stack it 6 high then it all falls out when you open the freezer. You can sort of improve both by...

You can probably get by with just a softener then.

True. I put in my order in September and took delivery in March. I think it's getting faster but it will still probably take a while.

I have a water softener and an iron filter that does the whole house and then an RO system for drinking water that only feeds the ice maker in my fridge and a little extra faucet on the kitchen sink. I think it cost around $6k but that was probably 10 years ago. What is your complaint about...

Are you talking about buying new? Or used? If new then order direct from the factory. Anything they have on the lot will have $30K+ worth of add-ons. A standard cab with no options is like half the price of a fully loaded pickup and will still have the basic stuff (AC, power windows, etc).

No. He was basically torturing the skinny kid with a shock collar.

Her stove is probably in the island. My brother's kitchen is like that.

It's not a sexy scene. I guess maybe to some people it is but it's not meant to be.

The producer character was just too over the top to be believable with the dog collar scene being the low point. I thought the show somewhat redeemed itself when they "got rid" of him but then when he came back it was just that much worse.

I still like Tabasco on eggs. I like the way it sort of stays in your mouth and then lights back up when you take a drink of coffee.

Clever way to expose the wires but shoving all that dirt down your drain doesn't seem like a great idea, plus now you have nothing to fill the hole in with. Edit: Nevermind. I guess that's some sort of vacuum? Pretty clever.

If you get it at the grocery store Valentina is practically free. 34 oz bottle is like $2.99. A friend recently sent me this one after he went to Belize for vacation. The sweet in this comes from carrots and it has a pretty distinct carrot flavor which I wouldn't have really thought...

I'm with you on sriracha. I wouldn't say it tastes like shit, but I'd rather have almost any other hot sauce. Valentina is my current go-to.

I'm putting a front bumper replacement grill guard on this one. Been waiting for the grill guard companies to get the new models out but they are finally ready. I'm told that the cameras and stuff will still work. It messes up adaptive cruise control but I don't have that anyway.

I just took delivery on a new F-350 with zero options and I'm pretty surprised how much tech is standard. Fucking thing has 6 cameras on it plus a 7th one in the glove box in case you want to mount it on your trailer. I'm kind of excited to try hooking up trailers with the cameras for as long...

Pickups cost around double the price of a car with a similar age and miles and get lousy gas mileage. I would not say they last longer than cars either. FWIW my F-150 is a 2011 with 135k miles and the engine and transmission are both spotless. It did need a timing chain at about 125k though...

None of it. I don't use operating money either. It's not hard if you have a little discipline. It's cheaper than borrowing money.

Crazy how small these engines are getting. Ford's eco-boost engine for the Fiesta/Focus is a 1.0L 3 cylinder and supposedly the engine footprint is the size of a piece of A4 printer paper. I love the 3.5L eco-boost in my F-150 though. Sometimes it seems like it pulls better than the 6.3L V8...

Not nearly as much as your new car would have.

You don't have to pay interest to buy a car. If you just save up for your next car instead of making payments on the one you already have you can save a lot of money, especially now. In addition, I think actually having the money in your bank account makes you less likely to overspend...

Quiche is super easy to make. Especially if you buy the crust at the store. Can use up some of your other leftovers as the same time as your eggs too.
